A teddy bear-themed event has once again proved to be a roaring success with families.
The Teddy Bears Picnic, held at Beech Hurst in Haywards Heath on August 21, brought together hundreds of families for a sunny afternoon of free entertainment and activities.
Organised by Haywards Heath FoodBank in partnership with Haywards Heath Town Council, the event included a magician show, teacup rides, soft play, sensory play and rides on the popular Beech Hurst Miniature Railway.
A spokesperson for Haywards Heath Town Council said: "The incredible demand for this year’s Teddy Bears Picnic really shows just how much this event has become a highlight for local families.

"It was fantastic to see so many residents enjoying a sunny afternoon together, with children having fun and, of course, plenty of teddy bears joining in too."
Billy the Bear made a special appearance, delighting children and families with photo opportunities throughout the day.
Children aged 10 and under with tickets received a packed lunch, ice cream and a small teddy bear to take home.
The town council spokesperson added: "We would like to thank Haywards Heath FoodBank for all their hard work in organising another fantastic Teddy Bears Picnic, as well as everyone who helped make the event possible."
